I use a lot of Mountain House Pro Packs and as much as I like the flavor and texture of this item, I avoid it like the plague.

The overwhelming downside is the cheese they use. It does NOT rehydrate well. It is very stringy and sticky. Get it on your spoon when stirring immediately after adding boing water, and you'll be forever trying to get the tenacious stuff off the spoon. Even my teeth couldn't do it completely. It's a real mess.
